By BBN Staff: The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is monitoring two disturbances in the Atlantic Ocean.

Showers and thunderstorms associated with a non-tropical low-pressure system located several hundred miles southwest of the Azores continue to get gradually better organized.

Forecasters say that a tropical or subtropical storm could form during the next few days while the system moves eastward or east-northeastward over the northeastern Atlantic Ocean. There is a 50% chance of formation within the next 48 hours.

The second disturbance is a tropical wave that is forecast to move over the central Caribbean Sea,  where an area of low pressure could form in a couple of days.

Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for development, and a tropical depression could form late this week or over the weekend while the system moves slowly westward.
